Was there an assassination attempt on Hillary Clinton in Israel?

Washington: Was there an assassination attempt on U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton while she was on an official visit to Israel.

According to Israel Radio and Reuters, there was.

Israel Radio broke the story earlier in the week, which was confirmed by sources inside Israel, but never mentioned again.

According to World Mathaba, the purported attack on Clinton was related to the current political upheaval in Israel-the aim being kill Clinton, blame Iran and take the focus off the domestic political meltdown in Tel Aviv.

According to sources, the attack on Clinton's convoy, a minimum of three to five vehicles, traveling from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, follows the story earlier of an attack on a bus loaded with Israeli tourists that exploded in Bulgaria, which killed six persons.

According to World Mathaba, both the Bulgaria attack and the attempted assassination of Clinton was a Mossad "false flag" operation.

There are dozens of Mossad agents operating in Bulgaria, which still has in place massive Soviet era security services that follow all tourists.

Coincidentally, the attack on Clinton took place within hours of her supporting Israel regarding the Bulgarian attack, it said.

Normal security procedures should have prevented any vehicle on open regions from coming within 200 meters of Clinton, it added.
